With North Carolina’s legislative session in full swing, we check-in with lawmakers on today's WilmingtonBiz Talk.
Members from the area’s legislative delegation answer questions about key bills, state budget priorities and the outlook on redistricting during which the GOP-led legislature will redraw political maps.
They also fill us in on measures with area impacts, such as film grant incentives and local spending, to changes to schools and health care.
The panel:
- Rep. Ted Davis Jr.
Davis, a Republican, represents New Hanover County in the state House’s District 20. A former New Hanover County commissioner, Davis was first appointed to fill a House seat in 2012 and has served five full terms. He serves as chair of the House Judiciary 1 committee and vice chair of the Strategic Transportation Planning and Long-Term Funding Solutions committee
- Sen. Michael Lee
Lee returned to the N.C. Senate after winning the District 9 seat representing New Hanover County. He was first appointed to the Senate in 2014 and re-elected in 2016. Lee, a Republican, chairs the Senate Education/Higher Education committee as well as the Appropriations on Education/Higher Education committee.
